Hi Mammal.
I'm not sure about having two active ORDERS interacting with one another, but I do remember helping a friend with a setup with two active SYMBOLS on a single chart, i.e. trading one symbol based on the chart of another. His situation was similar to yours, having live data for FDAX futures but executing trades on the Ger30 CFD through FXCM brokerage (or the other way round).
One solution was pretty straightforward. Somewhere in the chart settings window, you can enter a symbol to TRADE, different from the symbol being CHARTED.
Another solution would be to use the "overlay" studies if I remember the name correctly. You open one trading chart for, say, the CFD Ger30 and then set its bar style to "none" or "blank" if you want. This way no bars are painted on chart, but you still get the prices and the ability to trade from that chart.
Now open another chart for another symbol, the FDAX, getting live data from Eurex. Apply the indicators you want to that chart, then minimize it. The chart is still there, but doesn't take up any space.
Go back to the Ger30 trading chart, and insert some of Sierra's built-in overlay studies. Use those to read numbers off the subgraphs on the FDAX chart.
In the end you'll have a workspace with two charts, but one of them is hidden out of view.
I hope this helps. I'm not sure the above is exactly how we did it, but it should give you some idea.
